4 Easy to Make and Quick Desserts for Thanksgiving

Desserts are always a fun thing to bring to a hosted Thanksgiving party. People always love sweets at the conclusion of their large Thanksgiving Feast. But, after cooking all the different side dishes, and the main course, desserts can be left out to dry. And, as you may have realized, I am more of a cook than a baker, so these four easy to make and quick desserts are great for those last minute, “oh, I forgot to make dessert!” moments.

Each dessert can be substituted for your favorite fall fruit like apples even though I had used other kinds. Let’s quickly share these desserts so you can get to baking.

The first dessert is a CHERRY HAND PIE RECIPE. This recipe is great for kids for those “grab and go” active kiddos. They can quickly take it with them with little mess.  This recipe is not a gluten-free dessert though.

The next recipe is a Gluten Free version. It’s a Pineapple Upside Down Cupcake recipe. It makes 12 cupcakes and is excellent for serving individual portion controlled sizes.

The next recipe is a slow cooker recipe. It’s called Spiced Peach Crumble.  It used oatmeal and frozen and thawed peaches. It’s great to make and keep warm for after dinner.

And the last quick recipe is an easy Gluten-Free Apple Cobbler. This recipe is another gluten-free recipe but can be made with regular flour if you wish. This one is also yummy with caramel drizzled on top for extra sweetness.
